INTERSTATE COMMERCE..
Pennsylvania Company Charged
With Violating the LAW.

WASHINGTON, May %. Before the
interstate commerce commission to-day
Mr.. William a. Brown, in behalf of
the Chicago and Alton railroad compa
ny, liled charges against the PennsylYa'
MIA railroad company ofviolation OF the
third section Of the interstate commerce
act. He charged specifically that the
Pennsylvania company had unlawGully
given preference and advantage to the
Chicago, Burlington and Qnincy rail-
road company in the Interchange of
passengers at Chicago, and denied 10
the Chicago and Alton reasonable IA
eilities for the interchange of passenger
traffic. This Is alleged to be the result
of an unlawful lcombination on the part
of the Pennsylvania and other compa-
nleS to coerce tie public.
Mr.. Brown also filed, In behalf of the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific rail-
road company, similar charges against
the New York Central and Hudson
River railroad company. The commits
sion, after hearing his statement, en-
tered an order for the companies
against which the complaints are made
To appear and make answer in ten
days.
Statements were also filed in behalf
of the Chicago and Alton aud the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Pacific railroad
companies in answer to the complaints
made against them, by the Burton
stock car company.
The commission has received a COM
munication from the Mississippi rail.
road commission protesting against tie
suspension of section 1, saye only as to
exceptional shipments in cases whore
the same is manifestly demanded to 50.
cure speedy transit. The protest is
based upon the following reasons /:
"First-Because permanent suspen-
sion of .the section referred TO would
emasculhte the law to such an extent
as TO render it almost nugatory and
thereby defeat the purpose of congress.
"Second-Bacause the enforcement
of this section would, in our opinion,
be great relief to the small interior
towns of the country and people who
lIye along the lines of railroads and a.
way fcom the trade centres. This, in
our opinion, is the class standing in
need of protection against the unjust
and oftentimes oppressive exlctions of
railroad corporations.
The city council Of Ceatral City, Ne
braska, has sent in a protest against
any suspension of the fourth section of
the act, which would, they say, contin.
ue the existing evil of compelling the
people of interior localities TO make
good the losses, if any, incurred In
charging less for n longer than for n
shorter haul over the rails.

THE legislature adjourned last
Thursday and they did SO apparently
feeling as if the session had been q
continuous display OF wise statesman
ship. So it was in their minds. But
it must not be forgotten that the body
is largely Republican and that the
work of the members on that side of
the house was principally in the in
terest of corporations and for the best
of the Republican party. The failure
of completing the apportionment work
must naturally be placed where it be-
longs-to the Republican leaders.
While the Congressional apportion-
ment got through on the very last
day, the senatorial apportionment bill
got left entirely. This is undisputably
a neglect of duty and surely merits
the condemnation of the people of this
state.

1T is certainly source of gratifca-
tion to us to see and hear that the
feeling among all the candidates for
county Offices in this canvass is for
peace and unison and if fthis sentiment
is maintained as the campaign advan-
ces we may hope for an undivided
and old time democratic victory next
fall. So it should be. The fash
ion of going back on the nominated
ticket, if your name don't happen to
be among the nominees is unbecoming
to a genuine Democrat. Let all dc
their duty to their party. irrespective
ola few triiiiDg ups and downs, incl
dent to all political campaigns. And
least of all give ear to the many un-
healthy and melting articles which
are put up as campaign capital by op-
posing organs.

THE Philadelphia Times don't like
the new congressional apportionment
one bit as may be seen from the fol
lowing editorial upon that subject, in
which it gives q graphic pom picture
of the new division of districts:
The Congressional apportionment
bill has already become q law by the
approval of Governor Beaver, and the
first election of Congressman under it
Will take place next year. 1t is very
far from o creditable act, although the
Democrats receive under it what is
probably all that could reasonably be
expected from Legislature that is
overwhelmingly Republican in both
branches, with q reliably partisan
Governor to sign whatever the party
demands.
There are six districts which will be
surely Democratic The Third, now
represented by Mr.. Randall the
Eighth, made up Of parts of Sowden 5
and Buckalew's districts the Ninth,
in whichLehigh is added to Berks; the
Seventeenth, which is made by adding
Democratic Northumberland to the
western end of the Buckalew district ;
the Nineteenth, Maish's, which re-
mains as before, and the Twenty
eighth, which ought to become famous
as the sea serpent district. 1t extends
east and west for nearly hundred
miles, including Clearfeld and Centre;
then suddenly rears northward to take
in Elk; westward again to seize For
est and southwark once more to scoop
in Clarion, To these six rock-ribbed
Democratic districts may be added
LuZerne county, the new Twelfth, as
safe for the same party in everything
but cyclonic Republican campaign.
The Democrats will also have o fight
ing chance in the Seventh, or Bucks
Montgomery district, the Eleventh. or
Lackawanna, and the Thirteenth, or
Schuylkill district, and Scott, by con-
tinuing to sweep Erie county, may
even carry the Erie Crawford district.
1t is ridiculous nonsense to call
some of these districts compact and
contiguous The Venango-W Warren
Elk-Cameron district resembles a
bathing suit stretched over the board
walk at the seashore to dry, and the
Eighteenth district, with Union coun-
ty added to its northernmost end,
reaches halfway across the State, and
would reach two-thirds of the way
across if it were straight instead Of re-
sembling a crooked leg. 1t is q rep
resentative partisan apportionment.

a Sad Tale about Drink.

SToUDsBURG, Pa, May -, The
death Of Lizzie Freese, talented lady,
aged - years, which occurred ut Shaw.
nee, Monroe county on Tuesday, fur

temperance sermon. Lizzie was

was more or less petted aud spoiled.

was the giving to her in small quantities
of liquor to keep her quiet. This was
kept up until the girl developed an ap-
petite that was impossible TO conquer.
Her father died two years ago, and her
mother followed him year later. BY
death Lizzie became their sole possess.
or of the home stead,a farm valued at
from $40, 900 to $4,000. Left entirely
to herself, she plunged into excess and

friends forsook her, even her relatives

A week ago her condition become

that condition until she died. Thus
she passed away, unhonored and un-

THE following article taken from the
Harrisburg Patriot treats on o sub
ject which bears earnest consideration
in this neighborhood. When read
ing the extract those whom it may
concern should simply insert the
word "trout" in place of "black bass''
and it will Git a number of cases right
at home. As far as fishing is con-
cerned we have class of people in
this community who pay no more re-
gard to the fish laws than if they did
not exist. We indorse the Patriot Is
words emphatically, and are in favor
of putting the suggestions made into
practice.
The law forbids the taking of bass before
the first of June and those who have taken
them during the past two weeks have com
mitted an offense against the law. Some
of these offenders have aggravated their
crime by taking their nets. This method of
catching is prohibited at all times.
The law regulating the catching of fish
was enacted in the interest of the entire
public. With proper restraints in the TAX
ing OF fish, so as to avoid waste the streams
OF the state might be made most prolific
source of supplying cheap food to the peo-
pie, as well asa most healthful and pleasant
diversions to those who fare fond of fishing
with hook and line. But SO long as persons
are allowed to catch the fish Immediately
before or during the spawning season there
can be no hope of multiplication in the
waters.
Those who are not willing to conform to
the laws governing the taking of fish should
be subjected to the penalty which is punish
ed for the violation of the law. The person
who takes fish out of season with a hook
and line is censurable and ought to be pun
ished, but person who takes fish during
the spawning season with net is an enemy
to the public and deserves the severest pun
ishment the law provides.
